  5. Responding to email surveys after a medical visit:

    "I don't do surveys for free.
    Just like America's FOR #PROFIT #Healthcare #INDUSTRY, I charge a fee for my patient time.
    #Surveys are charged $50/question.
    Let me know if you'd like to proceed.
    I will supply remittance details."

  7. Keep an eye out for the January 2023 edition of the Communication of the ACM, where Jon Tedesco, N Cihan Tas, and Brian Eaton, and I share how we built out tooling for Distributed Critical Path Tracing to understand and control the latency of Google Search. It's in open access, so you can read it at any time at dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3570522

  8. - Is this an immutable class?
    - Yes, it doesn't have a setter.
    - What about that non-private non-final field?
    - Ehhh ... uh ...

    Myslím, že přidat do pohovoru pětiminutový live coding byl velmi dobrý nápad, protože díky tomu odpadnou zbytečná další kola. #TimeIsMoney #recruitment #Java

  9. Pour une fois que j'utilise mon compte amazon parce qu'on a "besoin" d'un truc super rapidement .... (déjà mon argument était moyen valable). J'ajoute dans la livraison un deuxième objet (en me disant que tant qu'à payer une livraison express à la maison autant ajouter un autre objet qui viendra dans la même livraison).
    Et ces cons me font deux livraisons différenciés sur la même journée (sans surcoût) pour "aller plus vite). #amazon #capitalisme #timeismoney #cemondeestfou

  10. In looking at various forms of power, one point that's increassingly clear to me is that in a mature and multipolar society what exists are multiple power centres, each often with the effective capability to say "no". The word veto comes directly from the Latin, for "I forbid", and comes from that culture's multipolar power structure, the Senate.

    There's also a lesson from warfare and combat, which is that the ability to induce damage or cost on an enemy whilst avoiding it oneself is also powerful. This is the difference between melee and ranged weapons (hand-to-hand, or tooth-and-claw, vs. ballistic or projectile weapons, see also "time-ranged" weapons in the form of traps and snares). "You don't have to be there for it".

    Camouflage and armour afford similar capabilities.

    The dynamics enabling NIMBY attacks are that stalling tactics don't incure consts or liabilities for those engaging in them. Sometimes this has merits, it very often does not, e.g., the delay of a bike-lanes project which sees scores of additional cycling and pedestrian deaths due to street traffic.

  11. Why does it cost so much to build things in America?

    Researchers have ruled out some of the more obvious potential explanations for why these projects cost more in the US.

    As transit researcher Alon Levy writes in a report for the Niskanen Center, “This is not about our wealth: there is no correlation between a country’s GDP per capita and its subway construction costs. Nor is it about geological factors: the biggest factor behind a project’s cost is what country it is in, and costs are fairly consistent even across different geologies ... This is purely institutional.”

    And when it comes to roads and the bulk of the high costs — “the new construction bit” — Turner says even though he has “no idea why those prices are increasing,” he can “eliminate a lot of things.” Turner explains that common theories like unions or the way we’re building roads or where we’re building them (for example, in more urban areas) are not supported by statistical evidence.

    Time is money, money is power, power is delaying transportation projects
